# Abstract

This TIP proposes an option for frames that allows users to set the
background of the window to be an image.

   repeatedly painted \(with no gaps between the areas painted\) to the
   right and below that initial painting until such time as the entire
   widget is covered by copies of the image. If this option gives
   _boolean_ as false, the image will only be painted once, such
   that the center of the image painted is coincident with the center
   of the frame widget.

# Implementation

See the [tip-262 branch](https://core.tcl-lang.org/tk/timeline?r=tip-262).
